Manuel Spence · Answer 1

Answer: -

D. scientists predict a volcano will erupt in the near future because of current volcanic activity

Explanation: -

Reconstruction involves analyzing evidence present to understand what happened before. For example scientists assume an area was once undersea due to the types of rock deposits. The area was under sea before.

Scientists assume an animal was a meat eater because of the teeth in its fossil. Again the animal was before.

Scientists assume an animal could climb trees because of its hand structure. The animal existed before. Now no longer present.

But in D scientists predict a volcano will erupt in the near future because of current volcanic activity, the event of eruption could occur in the future. It has not happened already like in the previous cases.
